I am confused about how they calculate points for official languages when applying for Express Entry.

First,

Please have a look at this website.
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...y/language-requirements/language-testing.html
For any program, it says (Maximum 24 points).

Second,

put anything for anything else than
5)Official Languages.
put IELTS AND speaking 7 listening 7.5 reading 8.0-9.0 writing 6.0

calculate your score and go to Core/Human capital factors -Official Languages
it says 105.

I am wondering how this calculates. I thought S7 R8 L7 W7 and seems like if I put writing as 7.0 and 7.5 there is difference in CRS calculation tool, and I dont understand why.
 
Because a score of 7.0 in writing is CLB 9 and 7.5 is CLB 10.
 
Because a score of 7.0 in writing is CLB 9 and 7.5 is CLB 10.

Even if its CLB 10+ for 7.5, and CLB 9 for 7.0, what I am confused is that CLB 9 or 10+ Points per ability is 6. I dont understand how come it shows 105 points for the calculator
 
The points you're looking at are for eligibility purposes under the FSW program. They are NOT for CRS purposes.

Can you please tell me, or link me how they calculate the CRS score with IELTS? (which IELTS score gets how much CRS score)
